it [pot] doesn’t split the way gay and welfare do.
Maybe 60/40 on the pot. 80/20 or more for gay and welfare.
Are you sure? California prop 19 to legalize pot is polled around 50/50, yet dems (44%) out-register repubs (32%). That would indicate less than 40% of repubs support legalized pot (therefore, smoke pot?). You are saying 60% of repubs smoke pot.

No, I’m saying that of pot smokers, about 40% are Republican, about 60% are Democrat. Yes, more Dems than Reps, but not 2 to 1.
Of gay and welfare, a much higher percentage are Dems. Well over 2 to 1 Dem.
